tls glibc broken on ppc

I'm using cvs head (more or less) on (among others) ppc. Allmost all apps 
segfault immediately when using /lib/tls/libc (though some don't; eg. rpm). 
rm -rf /lib/tls and everything works fine. Fedora's glibc also works fine 
(thanks to Jeff Johnson for suggesting I should check it), and I've managed 
to pinpoint why. Here's Jakub Jelinek's patch: 
http://cvs.pld-linux.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/SOURCES/glibc-tls_fix.patch?rev=1.3
It's more than a year old (which btw makes me wonder why fedora's glibc 
differs that much from cvs head).

God is gonna shake his mighty head
He'll either say,
"I'm pleased where man has been"
Or tear it down, and start again
